Microsoft's ongoing bounty program for finding Windows 8.1 exploits has resulted in another $100,000 reward that is being paid to a researcher who discovered Mitigation Bypass variants



From Neowin:

In October, Microsoft awarded its top bounty reward of $100,000 for the first time to security researcher James Forshaw for his discovery of a mitigation bypass exploit in Windows 8.1. This week, the company revealed that it has given out another $100,000 prize to researcher Yu Yang for finding and reporting variants on the Mitigation Bypass.

The $100,000 reward was posted up quietly on Microsoft's Bounty Hunter honor roll page and also revealed via Twitter by Katie Moussouris, the company's Senior Security Strategist Lead.
